Saving games online

Signed in, Save keeps your game in My games instead of a file, so you can open it on any computer.

Coin Quest โ€” NutHouse
The My games dialog listing games saved online, with Open a file from this computer at the bottom
Open shows My games when you are signed in.

How to

  1. Sign in (the top corner of the editor).
  2. Press Save or โŒ˜S. The first time, NutHouse asks for a name for the game.
  3. From then on, Save just saves. The window title loses its dot when the game is safe.

Opening a game

Open shows My games: the newest first, with when it was saved and how big it is. Pick one to open it. Open a file from this computerโ€ฆ at the bottom opens a .nuthouse file instead.

Both at once

A game can live online and as a file. Save keeps it where it came from; to make a file copy of an online game, use Shareโ€ฆ โ†’ Save as a web page for players, or open it in the Mac app and save it there.

Two computers

If the same game was saved from somewhere else since you opened it, NutHouse asks before saving over it. Pick the version you want to keep.

Limits

SizeA game can be up to 10 MB. Games built from the library are well under 1 MB; big imported photos and sounds are what push it up.
How manyUp to 50 games online per account. Delete old ones from My games or the account page.
Older savesThe last five saves of each game are kept. In My games, press โŸฒ Older saves next to a game to get one back; the save you are replacing is kept too.
